      Hi TAS,


      Thank you for your creative writing book. I bought it for my dd1 before her

      exams and she did very well for her composition. She improved to get 16

      marks upon 20. Really thankful I managed to get your book before the

      exams :rahrah:
      Hi FNg,

      Thanks for your feedback! :lol: Really happy to hear about
      the improvement in your daughter's results.

            Hi TAS,

            Aiya, you are welcome haha we really appreciate your free community programmes too.

            My children are very excited about the Write a Book programme esp, they are thrilled to think that they can have a chance to publish their own storybook so they are working very hard to try to get in. Its an excellent way to motivate them to learn their phrases! Even if they do not get in, at least they have learnt a lot of good vocabulary.

              TAS is short for The Alternative Story.
              An enrichment centre that helps students with the English Language
              up till Secondary School level. They also offer Science & Mathematics
              programmes. Some programmes are also ability based where higher
              ability children can be further enriched to achieve bigger potentials...

              They currently have 3 centres. Main & first branch in Yishun, another
              in Paya Lebar and finally one in Bt Timah Shpg centre that recently
              opened; much to the delight of fellow westies.

              TAS has been applauded for their creative ways of teaching children
              language. They also have fun ways to teach children how to memorize
              Science facts and offer occasional field trips to follow up with what has
              been covered in class.

              The teachers are all knowledgable, patient and extremely passionate
              about what they believe in and you can see it almost immediately the
              minute you speak to anyone of their educators.

              TAS Creative Writing book is a compilation from TAS which was recently
              launched as a guide for students and parents alike.

              You may find more details on their blog as well..
              thealternativestory.blogspot.com
              or call them up @ 67588744.

              If you like, you may also post questions to them
              directly here in our forum threads.

              Hope this helps.
              Hi buds,

              Thank you!! Your reply is very detailed and extremely helpful. I will definitely call them up. May I ask if your child is at their centre?

                It's in the plans. šŸ˜„


                I'm currently awaiting the birth of my #3 and since the logistics part is
                on me, i have to wait till next year before i officially make the decision
                for my girls to join them... for the added fun enrichment. My family & I
                have also recently shifted to our new home & that adds to the travelling
                issues as i will have to bear in mind that i will be travelling with 3 children
                to and fro TAS. My husband is working and i am a stay-home-parent. I'm
                hoping that my children can have the privilege to learn with TAS soon. šŸ˜„
                I have joined in their parents workshop & was thrilled to be able to speak
                personally with some of their educators & volunteers. Their passion for
                what they do truly shows from how they relate to parents on the many
                questions thrown at them. I sincerely hope that you find what you need
                for your child to further enhance her learning potential. Take care. :hugs:
